| 520 | |a A study was made to determine whether fathers and mothers provide different types of linguistic and cognitive experiences for their preschool children. Sixteen preschoolers, divided into two groups by age and sex, participated in the study with their parents. During home visits each child was observed interacting with each parent individually. Each dyad was audiotaped and videotaped while playing with play-doh or looking at a picture book for up to 30 minutes. Parental questions were coded for level of distancing strategies. A parental warmth measure assessed parental actions that expressed enthusiasm, playfulness, enjoyment of the child, enjoyment of doing something with the child, compassion, or understanding. A parental sensitivity measure globally rated parents' sensitivity to their child's cognitive level, emotional state, and physical state. Results indicated that task situation and sex of the child influenced parental speech and interaction with their preschool children. Fathers and mothers were comparable in their cognitive demands. The task in which the dyad engaged was important in the use of distancing strategies. Sex of child contributed to differential treatment. Although all parents exhibited warmth and sensitivity, parents of daughters exhibited more warmth and greater sensitivity than did parents of sons. (RH) | ||
